Supporting our Community service programs
Summer event is Saturday, August 27:
The Summer Classic
St. Mark's is
open to the world around us
and serves as a visitor, hospitality, and community center, and an arts and music venue for the whole Santa Ynez Valley region. We also serve many visitors to our area with a warm welcome and needed services. To support this work we have a summer event each year. In 2016 the event is
The Summer Classic
, a silent and live auction of fine wines and unique lifestyle experiences, magnificent hors d'oeuvres and dinner from
Jeff and Janet Olssen at New West
, top-flight local wines to enjoy and entertainment from Grammy winning
Mads Tolling
.
The evening event will be
Saturday, August 27
. We hope to host many who have supported our work in the past as well as new guests. As with all our events: many hands will make light work in presenting the event - help of all kinds from members and friends of St. Mark's will make the event a success - and keep St. Mark's in service to those who need this special place in the wider community.

Our Summer Classic auction of fine wines and unique lifestyle experiences on August 27 will help St. Mark's further its mission of community outreach and serving as a visitor, hospitality, and community center, and an arts and music venue for the whole Santa Ynez Valley region. This event is offered by
everyone at St. Mark's working together to welcome the circle of neighbors and friends of the parish (from near and far) who care about our community service work and our professional preschool.
St. Mark's provides a no-cost meeting venue for more than 60 community organizations annually, performance and art exhibit space, a professional pre-school and a daily safe haven with shade, water, restrooms and Wi-Fi for any visitor passing by.
St. Mark's has a generous, hard-working and committed congregation, happily volunteering all year both within the church as well as throughout the Valley. The Summer Classic chairs are constantly asked
"How can I help?"
Underwriting necessary expenses
is another great way for members to help make the Summer Classic successful. While many St. Mark's folks make in-kind gifts and donate items, we can eliminate more expenses through underwriting.
Gifts of any amount will help reduce the percentage of our expenses, with a goal of 0%. Underwriting will make more funds from the event available for community service.
Mainly,
we all work together to create the event
and provide the "people power" to staff all the different committees and do the tasks involved. Many hands make light work!
Some, especially those who want to bid on rare and fine wines and very special event experiences (or bring someone who does), donate for a reservation for the event. Many encourage their friends to donate fine wines or special opportunities to be auctioned - and let those same friends know how to reserve to come bid and take home some new treasures.
If you are interested in underwriting, please contact
Carol Anders
(688-3445 or cadaanders@hotmail.com) or
Jim Lohnas
Jim Lohnas
, (448-5403 or jimlohnas@gmail.com)
, Summer Classic Chairs
. Also, let them know if you would like to work on the event -
there's something for everyone to do, a way for everyone to contribute.

Ministries displays; Sunday School registration
Fall Faire is Sunday, September 11
All ministries, guilds and groups offer displays and information inviting participation in all aspects of our life as a faith community on Sunday, September 11. Displays are ready that day by 8:45 for those who come to the 8 am service and also for the refreshment time after the 10 am service. Leaders of all of all aspects of our parish life can be planning now for an attractive and creative display.
Also, be thinking about friends and acquaintances to invite to St. Mark's for this first day of the new program year. A personal invitation is the most effective way for people to realize that they are truly welcome at St. Mark's.
The 5 pm service continues year-round for those who enjoy either the time of day or a more casual service.

Want to be part of the new handbell choir?
St. Mark's was recently given a full set (about two and a half octaves) of professional handbells by a Long Beach church - watch for more information about this exciting special gift. The gift will make our handbell choir an even more delightful activity. You don't have to be part of our choir or have another music specialty to be part of this group and learn how to make a "joyful noise" with handbells.

Why do we do it?

Available each Sunday in the church and in Stacy Hall
The Sunday Paper is a resource for children and families
Each Sunday the Sunday Paper and Sunday Paper, Jr. (two different formats) tell the story of the Scripture readings in cartoons. The Sunday Paper, Jr. also has a note to parents each week. Christian formation and nurture is most effective at home and in conversation with parents and other caregivers. The Sunday Paper gives families and opportunity to tell the stories of scripture and discuss what they mean to you. Copies are in both entrances of the church and on the back table as you arrive at church as well as in Stacy Hall each week.

You are invited to host Sunday refreshments
Hosts for refreshments are welcome each Sunday and help provide a key experience of hospitality and community for St. Mark's and our guests. Anyone is welcome to host and snacks need not be elaborate - absolutely anything you choose to provide - for about 25 people for the 8 am service or 45-50 after the 10 am service. Hosts will have help from Vestry members to make coffee (and there are also simple directions - like using a "Mr. Coffee" machine). The duties are simple: to bring milk or half and half and set that out to go with coffee, replenishing as needed, and then cleaning up afterwards - also a simple matter. The sign up is in Stacy Hall. Questions? Contact Marilyn Allmon at 688-2729.

In memory or celebration...
Flower dedications any and every Sunday
Flowers at the altar are an important part of our Sunday Eucharist and add to the beautiful and devotional setting for our worship. Altar Guild members arrange these flowers each week. The flowers are paid for by the Altar Guild budget, which is enhanced by donations made by parishioners, usually in celebration or commemoration of a meaningful event. They can be made in celebration of a birthday or an anniversary, in thanksgiving for a new birth or another milestone, or in memory of a loved one who has died. Most of us have made contributions at Christmas and Easter, which results in the glorious profusion of flowers during those two seasons. However, throughout the year we as individuals have the opportunity to donate flowers to the Glory of God and to commemorate personal events in our lives.
Even in the seasons of Advent and Lent, when floral arrangements give way to other seasonally appropriate displays, your gift and commemoration can be remembered in the appropriate week. Also, more than one remembrance can be recognized each week - so if your birthday and someone else's wedding anniversary are the same week, both can be remembered.
For your convenience, there is a chart in the back of the church, or you may contact Altar Guild member Jeannie May (689-4050 or jeannie@the100acrewood.com). Jeannie will let you know how to make your donation for flowers, and will get the wording of the dedication you want to make to the Altar Guild and onto the parish's unified schedule for the weekly eRoar and Little Roar.

Did you know?
Gluten-free bread available at the altar
Anyone who would like gluten free bread at the altar is welcome to receive it at any service. Thank you to our Altar Guild for providing this option. Simply let the priest presiding at the Eucharist know your preference.

Would you or someone you know
like to be visited?
Lay Eucharistic Visitors bring communion to members who cannot come to church
"We who are many are one body, because we all share one bread, one cup." It is with these words that the congregation at St. Mark's-in-the-Valley regularly sends forth Lay Eucharistic Visitors from its Sunday services to bring Communion to those who cannot come to church. St. Mark's has twelve visitors serving God and the parish. These volunteers are members of St. Mark's who have been trained to share the pastoral and sacramental ministries of the Church.
These individuals go wherever they are needed - to pe ople's homes, to hospitals, and to nursing homes to visit people who are temporarily unable to come to church as well as those who are homebound long-term. They perform a simple order of worship and share information about the parish. Lay visitors also offer Communion to any friends and family of the recipient who might be there as well.
These ministers of Christ's love play a crucial role in St. Mark's parish life, and have offered comfort to those who may need it the most.
To learn more about the Lay Eucharistic Visitor program or if your have someone you know that would like to be visited, please contact: Freda Iverson 805-448-6604, f.iverson@me.com.

Who schedules our regular ministries each week?
Each ministry coordinator sends the service schedule to those who are on it. Please be sure to check the schedule and put the dates you are serving on your calendar to avoid confusion on Sunday. If you've lost the schedule, please contact your ministry coordinator; they will be happy to resend it.
Contact information is in your directory.
